[In the grass beside an open grave lie two figures caked in enough filth as to be barely recognisable. Neither moves, although closer examination shows that the one nearest the camera is, at least, breathing. The other is holding on to her so tight it can only be an indicator of life, or rigor mortis

Hello again.

[worksmart]

Hey.

audio;

[treadingdawn]

Do either of you need anything?

[worksmart]

We've had some time to remember what fresh air feels like; I think we're covered.

audio;

[treadingdawn]

Are you sure? You have been through a lot it seems.

audio;

[worksmart]

About six feet of earth. I don't need anything.

[treadingdawn]

Well, you may not like to hear it but I am happy to see you and Cameron back again, alive. I'm sure others are too.

[Like Amory.]

[worksmart]

Why wouldn't I like to hear it? Right now, I couldn't agree more.

[Ffft, unpossible.]

[treadingdawn]

It seemed like you wanted to be home...although being alive first is preferable.

[worksmart]

Being alive makes a lot of things seem less important. I'm... okay with this.

audio; 1/2

[treadingdawn]

I am very much okay with it. I recommend hot baths and cider together.

audio;

[treadingdawn]

The bath and the cider.

[Not...Cameron. Maybe.]

[worksmart]

[SOB. IT WOULD BE AN IMPROVEMENT ON HIS DAY but no.]

I might have to settle for a shower and bed tonight. The drink's not a bad idea.

[treadingdawn]

I live to counsel.
